Great room and very friendly hosts. The room had a wonderful view. The room was furnished with great attention to detail. We couldn't imagine how it could be any better. The breakfast was also very tasty. Thank you Ella and Ricardo and to your team! Next time we're in Knysna, we'll definitely come back to you. Petra & Detlef

From the moment we arrived, Vanessa, the host, was incredibly welcoming and kind, making our stay truly memorable. The space immediately felt intimate and inviting. The entire property is beautifully decorated with stylish, high-end furnishings, and every corner has its own unique charm. It truly felt like staying in a designer home. The bedrooms were equally stunning, with elegant decor and luxurious linens, ensuring a very comfortable stay. We genuinely didn't want to leave this little piece of paradise.

I actually only wanted to stay three nights. But it turned out to be more. Need I say more? In short: a place to fall in love with. And Wendy played a key role in that. 🙏

We stayed over for the Knysna half marathon and we were so pleased with everything at Pearl View Guest House. Marycke and Conni are great hosts and the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and dinners - we didn't even leave the guesthouse to go and eat in town. Sundowners on the stoep with the sun setting over the lagoon is a must. We will definitely visit again.
